Need help. Duck problem

Go back to tractor supply and get some Purina Flock Raiser or Nutrena All Flock. While you’re there, I think I would get some of the b complex for cattle too.

Have you examined his leg joints? Any swelling or heat? Do they extend and flex properly?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Aw bless that is sad yes please examine his legs for heat and swelling. And get the BComplex sure can’t hurt.

Here’s what the b complex looks like. Every TSC should have it in stock. i am not sure how much you use tho, i know that @CayugaJana puts this over meal worms. I would keep him confined from walking until you can figure out what is causing this. Poor guy.

Dosing is 1ml a day of that complex.

 

[Ash999]

so what kind of food do yall recommend now instead of what i'm using.

 

[Miss Lydia]

An all flock . Much better for drakes and you can put out oyster shell for your layers. Purina Flock Raisers one but there are other brands too

I throw a handful of nutritional yeast into my all flock or flock raiser a couple times a week to be safe, as a preventative. Seems likely yours will need that B complex since he's already affected.

I've also read to supplement with oats or wheat. Grazing is a great way to lighten the diet.

Quick duck update!

He is now standing on one leg finally trying to walk but has one limp leg.
